Local knowledge for Alicante
Where to stay
Budget travelers cluster in El Barrio, the old quarter that climbs toward Castillo de Santa Bárbara, and in the streets around Mercado Central near Avenida Alfonso el Sabio. Both put you within easy walking distance of the Explanada de España and the port without paying waterfront prices.
Getting around
- Take TRAM Línea 1 from Luceros station north along the coast toward Benidorm for day trips. A single fare runs cheap and beats renting anything.
- Eat lunch inside Mercado Central. The upper-floor stalls do full plates for well under what you'll pay at any restaurant on the Postiguet beachfront strip.
- Playa de la Albufereta is a 20-minute walk or one TRAM stop north of the center. Same water, far fewer vendors, and no pressure to rent a sunbed.
When to go
Prices are lowest November through February. The city fills up in July and August, and the last week of June is especially tight because of the Hogueras de San Juan festival.
